A lateral partner hire on this brief turns on the portability of the practice, far more than on any headline figure.

Leading national law firm is seeking a partner-level corporate lawyer to build and lead private equity and M&A work across multiple U.S. offices. The role focuses on structuring and executing buyouts, minority investments, strategic acquisitions and exits for sponsor and corporate clients.

Ideal candidates will have a proven track record of originating and leading complex transactions, managing deal teams, and cultivating client relationships. The position offers a platform to grow a market-facing private equity practice within a collaborative, multi-office platform.

Substantial private equity and M&A experience, with a history of leading transactions from negotiation through closing
Strong client development and relationship-management skills
Experience supervising associates and cross-functional deal teams
Active bar admission and JD (or equivalent) from an accredited law school

Everything is held in confidence and nothing is shared with the firm without your explicit approval.
